Mineral water new national standard market is difficult to new packaging

The new mandatory national standards for drinking mineral water stipulate that from October 1st, the bromate content of mineral water must be controlled within 0.01mg/L, and the bromate content must be marked on the outer package of mineral water. On the 3rd, the reporter visited a large supermarket in the city and discovered that the new regulations were implemented for more than 30 days. There was no change in the packaging of mineral water for sale on the market. The content of bromate was not marked, and citizens were also unfamiliar with bromate.

On the morning of the 3rd, the reporter saw at the Wu Shang Dian Dong Street shop that the pure water and mineral water sold in the shop were mostly produced in late September and early October. The reporter then purchased three bottles of drinking water, which were 550 ml bottles of Master Kong mineral water, 596 milliliters of Wahaha drinking pure water, and 550 ml of Nongfu Spring. It was found that these drinking water packages only contained minerals, pH values, etc. No bromate content was noted.

When the reporter talked with some people who bought water about bromate, the public bluntly said "I don't know." “I will pay attention to the production date on the next label when I choose mineral water, and I will not pay much attention to the other contents of the label.” Mr. Wang, who is currently purchasing mineral water, told reporters at Wuhan Merchants Street Store.
